[Haskell-cafe] Template Haskell question?

[Jeremy Shaw]

Hello,

I had very similar problems due to bugs in 6.2 that are fixed in cvs head. If you build ghc out of cvs head that may fix your problem. If not, you can report the bug on the glasgow-haskell-bugs at haskell.org mailing list.

Jeremy Shaw.
